casual glasses

[joesilver]

well i want to make a custom of me(1/18). the problem is i wear glasses but i can´t find any action figure with casual glasses. suggestions??

Best small scale glasses I ever saw came with a Japanese gashapon (think quarter machine, only 100 times better) figure. Seeing as that's not an option perhaps try making some out of the bubble from a figure package? You'd need a new razor/X-acto blade and a steady hand, but other than finding a figure with glasses it may be the next best option.

I wear glasses too. When I made a self-custom, I took the lazy route and just used a Wild Bill head with the shades already moulded on.

Some of the Spylounge/Agent Annika figures come with neat scale shades.

As for glasses in the style you want, you may have to take K-T's advice and make your own.

Just find whatever 1:18 glasses you can and buy the 1:1 counterpart. Might be a little bit easier lol.

What about Henry Jones' glasses?

The ROC Baroness glasses have the right shape. maybe check into seeing if any of the online casters would cast you a pair in clear. Asphault may do it. not sure. Dont want to speak for him. I have a pair cast in white i would part. I also am sure i have a bunch of the ROC Baroness glasses somewhere too. I bought a bunch of her on clearence for the glasses. Just forget where i put them. lol.

Another thought i had was the Harry potter glasses. Not sure if they were removable or not.http://www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_070907a.htm They look to be

I'm starting to run out of Baroness glasses (seriously somehow I ended up with a half dozen of those coke-bottles) so I've tempted to do a simple green stuff mold cast of them.

I've made sunglasses out of zip ties, and used wire to make framed glasses.

Here is a look at the wire glasses (done some 5-6 years ago now)...
